Review: Angles

There's a lot of positive things to say about angles. Probably do to the fact that they have a lot of themselves. For instance, the triangle. Anything built in a triangular shape or with a triangle reinforcing it, will be incredibly strong. Anyone lived in a house recently? Guess what, there were angles holding that building up. Like that chair you're sitting on? Angles.

Fact is as a people we love our angles, and who am I to argue. With that in mind let's look at some of my favorites:

"The right angle"

Thank you right angle for the gift of the bookends, without which I couldn't stand up just a few books in the middle of empty space.

"The acute angle"

Dear acute angle,

You make my pencils sharp. I think you're awesome.

Love,
TS

"The obtuse angle"

I can't condone any angle that promotes ignorance. Sorry obtuse but you are a black mark against your brethren.

Angles, negatives aside, really frame our existence. They circle about and box us in, but in a good way. Therefore I rate angles a very positive 8 out of 10

I thought at first that you were talking about ANGELS but then I figured it out. Yes triangles are pretty sweet but that frickin' octogon can kiss my ass. I have been against that bitch since kindergarden. Not good enough to have six sides like my boy the hexagon, no you had to have eight sides...just like the cephalopods. UH HUH...didn't think I would make that connection did you?

I had been arguing with my close friend on this issue for quite a while, base on your ideas prove that I am right, let me show him your webpage then I am sure it must make him buy me a drink, lol, thanks.
